 Note in the example above how we can pass in `$event` to `clickMe`, but how it does not show up
 in `{{$event}}`. This is because `$event` is outside the scope of that binding.

-## One-time binding
-
-An expression that starts with `::` is considered a one-time expression. One-time expressions
-will stop recalculating once they are stable, which happens after the first digest if the expression
-result is a non-undefined value (see value stabilization algorithm below).

-  <file name="index.html">

-### Why this feature
-
-The main purpose of one-time binding expression is to provide a way to create a binding
-that gets deregistered and frees up resources once the binding is stabilized.
-Reducing the number of expressions being watched makes the digest loop faster and allows more
-information to be displayed at the same time.
-
-
-### Value stabilization algorithm
-
-One-time binding expressions will retain the value of the expression at the end of the
-digest cycle as long as that value is not undefined. If the value of the expression is set
-within the digest loop and later, within the same digest loop, it is set to undefined,
-then the expression is not fulfilled and will remain watched.
-
-  1. Given an expression that starts with `::` when a digest loop is entered and expression
-     is dirty-checked store the value as V
-  2. If V is not undefined mark the result of the expression as stable and schedule a task
-     to deregister the watch for this expression when we exit the digest loop
-  3. Process the digest loop as normal
-  4. When digest loop is done and all the values have settled process the queue of watch
-     deregistration tasks. For each watch to be deregistered check if it still evaluates
-     to value that is not `undefined`. If that's the case, deregister the watch. Otherwise
-     keep dirty-checking the watch in the future digest loops by following the same
-     algorithm starting from step 1
-
-
-### How to benefit from one-time binding
-
-When interpolating text or attributes. If the expression, once set, will not change
-then it is a candidate for one-time expression.
-
-```html
-  <div name="attr: {{::color}}">text: {{::name}}</div>
-```
-
-When using a directive with bidirectional binding and the parameters will not change
-
-```js
-someModule.directive('someDirective', function() {
-  return {
-    scope: {
-      name: '=',
-      color: '@'
-    },
-    template: '{{name}}: {{color}}'
-  };
-});
-```
-
-```html
-  <div some-directive name=“::myName” color=“My color is {{::myColor}}”></div>
-```
-
-
-When using a directive that takes an expression
-
-```html
-<ul>
-  <li ng-repeat="item in ::items">{{item.name}};</li>
-</ul>
-```
